Olvídense de Chucky, Annabelle e incluso M3GAN ... El Museo Embrujado de Zak Bagans tiene una muñeca aparentemente tan poseída que un hombre se desmayó después de encontrarse cara a cara con ella.

Zak dice que el hombre recibió atención médica después de recuperar la conciencia y estaba bien, aunque inquietantemente no quiso hablar con nadie después ni mucho menos mirar a ninguno de los empleados del museo.

El hombre rápidamente huyó del lugar y no ha regresado desde entonces.

Un comerciante de antigüedades con sede en Oregón encontró por primera vez a Lilly bajo un viejo baúl de vapor y se la llevó a su casa, donde inmediatamente comenzó a tener pesadillas sobre una niña que moría de forma violenta.

Más tarde, cuando una niña visitó la tienda, le dijo a su madre que tuvo una conversación con "la niña dentro de Lilly, que le dijo que murió de una forma aterradora".

Zak viajó a la tienda para investigar y cuando la mujer que trabajaba detrás del mostrador sacó a Lilly del estante, inmediatamente se retorció de dolor abdominal, diciendo: "Debo lavarme las manos", repetidamente.

Eso fue suficiente para que Zak la pusiera en exhibición en su museo en Las Vegas, donde está claro que continuará su reinado de muñecas de terror.

Zak says the man received medical attention after regaining consciousness and was OK -- although, disturbingly, he wouldn't speak to anyone afterward, let alone even look at any of the museum staff.

The man promptly fled the museum and has not returned since.

An Oregon-based antiques dealer first found Lilly under an old steamer trunk -- and took it back to his store where he immediately began having nightmares about a little girl dying a violent death.

Later, when a young girl visited the store, she told her mother she had a convo with "the girl inside of Lilly, who said she died in a scary way."

Zak traveled to the shop to investigate ... and when the woman working behind the counter took Lilly down from the shelf, she immediately doubled over with abdominal pain ... chanting, "I must wash my hands" repeatedly.

That was enough for Zak to put her up on display at his infamous Las Vegas museum ... where she's clearly continuing her doll-ightful reign of terror.

Zak Bagans exhibe el disfraz del Papá Noel asesino en serie

Published

Una nueva pesadilla de navidad ha llegado al Museo Embrujado de Zak Bagans en Sin City, donde acaba de inaugurar un traje de Santa que una vez usó un infame asesino en serie.

La estrella de "Ghost Adventures" le dice a TMZ que el traje usado por John Edward Robinson -un asesino en serie convicto, estafador, malversador, secuestrador y falsificador- estará en exhibición durante las fiestas en su museo.

El traje de Papá Noel era el que Robinson llevaba a las fiestas infantiles, a los actos de los scouts y a otras funciones similares. Zak compró el disfraz hace unos años y procedía de la herencia de John.

Pero incluso Zak está asustado por su nueva posesión ... mostrando su traje asesinos en serie dentro de su museo "Jail Room" - construido a partir de barras reales disembled de una prisión de Iowa. Él dice que cualquier cosa que pertenezca a estos monstruos malvados debe estar detrás de las rejas donde pertenecen.

Robinson era de hecho pura maldad ... después de haber sido declarado culpable en 2003 de 3 asesinatos en Kansas City y recibir la pena de muerte por 2 de ellos. También admitió la responsabilidad de 5 homicidios adicionales ... con los investigadores temiendo que podría haber otras víctimas por descubrir.

Sus crímenes fueron particularmente escalofriantes, ya que contactó a la mayoría de sus víctimas a través de chats en línea de temática BDSM (sexo alternativo), a menudo con el nombre de "Slavemaster".

Se le atribuyó la etiqueta de "primer asesino en serie de Internet".

Zak Bagans Exorcism Box, Journal Are Mine ... Terrifying Backstories!!!

Published

Zak Bagans is exercising his right to scare the crap out of folks at his Haunted Museum ... by bringing in some creepy-ass artifacts from famous exorcisms!!!

The "Ghost Adventures" star tells TMZ ... he recently got his hands on the fabled "Exorcism Box," which was used during the 1970s real-life exorcisms of Anneliese Michel ... whose story is the inspiration behind 2005's "The Exorcism of Emily Rose."

Zak tells us he got the box from filmmaker Christopher Saint Booth, who wanted to get rid of it after a disturbing experience, to put it mildly. While he had the box, Booth says he felt something growing inside him, and a doctor determined the growth contained teeth and stem cells.

Booth says he had an archbishop exorcise the box ... and while doing so, he saw a dark figure dart past him. Booth believes it was Anneliese, who died way back in 1976 following 67 catholic exorcism rites.

Zak says Booth told him the archbishop saw the figure too, which appeared to have Anneliese's face, and it was shaking uncontrollably as if being pushed away from the box by a dark energy. Booth believes the "Exorcism Box" absorbed all the energy from Anneliese's exorcisms.

If that doesn't give you enough chills ... Zak also obtained a copy of the infamous Exorcist Diary, which inspired the 1974 movie "The Exorcist."

There are only 6 copies of the diary, 2 of which remain in a vault at the Vatican. The diary documents a 3-month period of exorcisms on a 13-year-old boy in St. Louis way back in 1949 and includes a map of Hell.

Zak says Booth had the diary while working on a documentary called "The Exorcist File" ... and Booth says he felt very oppressed and suicidal whenever the diary was nearby.

And, get this ... Zak says Booth told him he had the diary with him in a hotel room when he saw a horned, shadowy figure appear just before something scratched his ankle and pulled him out of bed. 😱

Since bringing the items to his Haunted Museum in Las Vegas, Zak says countless guests are refusing to enter the new Exorcism Room Exhibit before they even know what's inside ... with some saying they felt light-headed.

Zak is not new to the exorcism world -- he filmed the 100th episode of "Ghost Adventures" in the house where the notorious St. Louis exorcism was performed.

It's a timely acquisition for Zak with Halloween lurking, and "The Exorcist: Believer" just hitting theaters.

No thanks. Nope. No way. But, that's just us.
